📖 Description

*This post, which deals with some widely discussed failure modes of transformative AI, is part 7 in our* [*sequence on Modeling Transformative AI Risk*](https://www.alignmentforum.org/s/aERZoriyHfCqvWkzg)*. In this series of posts, we are presenting a preliminary model of the relationships between key hypotheses in debates about catastrophic risks from AI. Previous posts in this sequence explained how different subtopics of this project, such as* [*mesa-optimization*](https://www.alignmentforum.org/s/aERZoriyHfCqvWkzg/p/T9oFjteStcE2ijCJi) *and* [*safety research agendas*](https://www.alignmentforum.org/posts/t7f6gF2kpafCMw6rv/modeling-the-impact-of-safety-agendas)*, are incorporated into our model.*
